Turn on airplane mode
In some places, such as on an airplane or in a hospital, you need to turn off all the connections on your BlackBerry device.
Airplane mode lets you quickly turn off your connections and, when you're done using airplane mode, turning off airplane
mode restores the connections that were previously turned on.
1. On the home screen, swipe down from the top of the screen.
2.
Tap Settings.
3. Turn on the Airplane Mode switch.
Mobile network
A mobile network connection allows your BlackBerry device to make calls and, if you have a data plan, use data services
such as Internet browsing. In some locations, such as in a hospital or on an airplane, you might need to turn off your mobile
network connection, but usually you can just leave your mobile network connection turned on.
In most cases your device automatically connects to the appropriate wireless network when you travel outside of your
wireless service provider's coverage area. If you're not sure if your device is set up for roaming, or what roaming fees will
apply, it's a good idea to check with your wireless service provider before you travel.
Connect to the mobile network
To turn on your mobile network connection, airplane mode must be turned off.
1. On the home screen, swipe down from the top of the screen.
2.
Tap Settings > Networks and Connections > Mobile Network.
3. Turn on the Mobile Network switch.
To turn off your mobile network connection, turn off the Mobile Network switch.
Change the APN settings for your default Internet connection
Your BlackBerry device uses Access Point Name (APN) settings to open a data connection with your service provider's
wireless network. Apps on your device that require Internet access can use this connection.
You might need to change your APN settings if you change your wireless service plan or if the default settings don't apply to
your service provider. Depending on your service provider, you might not be able to change the APN settings.
1. On the home screen, swipe down from the top of the screen.
2.
Tap Settings > Networks and Connections > Mobile Network.
3. If the Mobile Network or Data Services switches are off, turn them on.
